Overview: Reviews of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology attempts to provide concise, critical reviews of timely advances, philosophy, and significant areas of accomplished or needed endeavor in the total field of xenobiotics, in any segment of the environment, as well as toxicological implications.978-1-4419-2060-7978-0-387-30638-4Series ISSN 0179-5953 Series E-ISSN 2197-6554

Overview: International concern in scientific, industrial, and governmental communi­ ties over traces of xenobiotics in foods and in both abiotic and biotic envi­ ronments has justified the present triumvirate of specialized publications in this field: comprehensive reviews, rapidly published research papers and progress reports, and archival documentations. These three international publications are integrated and scheduled to provide the coherency essential for nonduplicative and current progress in a field as dynamic and complex as environmental contamination and toxicology. This series is

Overview: Provides a crucial introduction to Georg Simmel‘s work for undergraduate and graduate courses in sociology and social philosophy.Interprets Simmel‘s thought from the perspective of intimate relations..This textbook examines interaction, reciprocity, dualism, conflict, and personality in the work of Georg Simmel. These themes, which made Simmel the founder of relational sociology, are presented uniquely in the light of intimate relations. According to Simmel, intimate relations rather than the individual constitute the fundamental stratum of human culture. By relating objective social

Overview: Includes cutting-edge methods and protocols.Provides step-by-step detail essential for reproducible results.Contains key notes and implementation advice from the experts.This volume covers the latest technological advances in the characterization of the biosynthesis and functions of Rab GTPases and their regulation by guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs) and GTPase-activating proteins (GAPs). The book consists of 28 chapters and starts with an overview of the Rab GTPase family. The next few chapters describe systematic approaches to the identification and classification of Rabs

Overview: Differenzierungs- und Individualisierungsdiskurse im Katholizismus.Wie verändern sich religiöse Traditionen unter der Bedingung von Säkularisierung? Seit dem 19. Jahrhundert federte ein milieuförmiger Katholizismus die Folgen gesellschaftlicher Säkularisierung weitgehend ab. Davon ausgehend zeigt die Untersuchung jedoch, dass diese Strukturen bereits zur Zeit der Weimarer Republik deutlich an Integrationsfähigkeit verloren hatten. Plausibilitätsverluste der damals etablierten religiösen Sozialformen wurden zeitgenössisch zunehmend thematisiert. Dadurch ausgelöst kam es zu nachhaltige

Overview: This volume is the fourth instalment of the ‘Report on the state of the European Union‘ series. Its shows that if the EU does not want to be ruled by crisis any longer, it must invest in sustainability, political, economic, social and environmental. Europe must turn this elusive and ever-threatening ‘crisis‘ into a chosen and meaningful transition.978-1-349-49719-5978-1-137-45108-8

Overview: Addressing the impact of the Russian Revolution and change and continuity in diplomacy during the transition from Empire to Soviet Union, this book examines how Russia‘s diplomacy was conducted, the diplomats behind it, the establishment of the Soviet diplomatic corps and the steps taken to integrate the Soviets into the diplomatic world.978-1-349-32228-2978-0-230-35520-0

Overview: Nice and easy introduction to topic for students.Includes supplementary material: Algebraic curves and surfaces are an old topic of geometric and algebraic investigation. They have found applications for instance in ancient and m- ern architectural designs, in number theoretic problems, in models of b- logical shapes, in error-correcting codes, and in cryptographic algorithms. Recently they have gained additional practical importance as central objects in computer-aided geometric design. Modern airplanes, cars, and household appliances would be unthinkable without the computational m

Overview: Since its inception in 1997,the EuropeanConferenceon Researchand Advanced Technology for Digital Libraries (ECDL) has come a long way, creating a strong interdisciplinarycommunityofresearchersandpractitionersinthe?eldofdigital libraries. We are proud to present the proceedings of ECDL 2005, the ninth conference in this series, which, following Pisa (1997), Heraklion (1998), Paris (1999), Lisbon (2000), Darmstadt (2001), Rome (2002), Trondheim (2003), and Bath (2004), took place on September 18–23, 2005 in Vienna, Austria. ECDL 2005 featured separate calls for paper and poster submiss

Overview: Throughout, and particularly in those sections concerned with excavation design and design of mining layouts, reference is made to computational methods of analysis of stress and displacement in a roc.Although .Rock Mechanics. addresses many of the rock mechanics issues which arise in underground mining engineering, it is not a text exclusively for mining applications. It consists of five categories of topics on the science and practice of rock engineering: basic engineering principles relevant to rock mechanics; mechanical properties of rock and rock masses; design of underground ex

Overview: The symposium on "Neutral Clouds near HII Regions" was prompted by an obvious need to bring together workers specifically interested in the dynamical and photochemical effects in regions showing clear evidence of on-going star formation. This is currently an are a of considerable research activity with much new observational material over the wavelength range from X-ray to radio. Furthermore, the field isbeginning to mature. No longer is molecular spectroscopy concerned only with the search for new lines and with preliminary surveys. No longer are evolving HII regions modelled with t
